Bangor & Piscataquis road could not be made
to conform to the requirements of the Canad-
ian subsidy, WHY need that road make such
opposition to the amendment proposed by the
Bangor people That amendment provided
that If the Bangor Piscataquis road could
not be made to conform to those reuuire-
ments, the Megantic road could 20 and build
where they pleased.
Mr.. N oble of Lewiston referred to tho con.
tract between these roads, ratified bv lepis.
latlve enactment. The constitution declared
that the legislature should pass no law that
would impair the obligation of q contract
Why could not this Megantic road comply
with that compact in good faith,-a contract
upon the strength of which the people of
Bangor had waived their first mortgage on
this road and issued their bonds for 5000.
700 more to extend this road in accordance
with that contract. He hoped gentlemen
would not grant this charter and thus cut off
the American ports, but would respect the
vested rights of the city of Bangor, whose
commercial industries have been crippled by
the growing commercial supremacy of this
same foreign power.
Mr.. Pattangall of Pembroke did not think
that the Bangor Piscataquis road was in
any danger from this new road He thought
1t would rather benefit it. 1t would open IN
the shortest and most direct line to the west.
bringing to the eastern ports their great grain
products he was not afraid of this great
bugaboo of railroad. If these foreigners
wanted to come in the State of Maine and
spend their S2.500.000. why let them come.
and we would naturalze them, as we had
other capitalists from abroad who came here.

1 The Golden Gate Mining and Milling
Company are hard at work on their new
mill at Lost Basin. The stone work and
grading Is finished and part Of the frame
work Of the mill already up. The heavy
timbers for the battery frame are already
on the way to Lost Basin and the ma
ciiinery is commencing to arrive in King
man. Five more men have been put TO
work on the mine, which has been placed
in charge OF Sidney Brother. son Of the
general manager OF the company.
Eeecher & Co., the enterprising mcr-
chants OF this place, have secured the
contract for hauling ore from the Peabody
mine to the mill at Signal. As some
thirty tons per day will he required to
keep the mill running, this is no small
amount to haul nine miles every day in
the week.

to shut down the G. o. ID. mine for the
Fourth OF July, but that all the men who
can tc spared will be given chance TO
attend the celebration in Kinsman.

sacks OF 1900 ore on the way to the Samp-
ling Works from their mine at Wallapsi
mountain.
Il. III. Jones brought over couple OF
tons Of ore from the south extension Of
the Rural mine, which went nearly as
high as the Rura! ore.
Geo. Bowers had two tons worked from
the Night Hawk mine near La,ne
Springs.
We are told there is over fifty tons OF
ore sacked UP ready for shipment lying at
Chloril lie awaiting teams 10 hani il.
The namber OF teams required TO trans

Lou johnson, Chinese detective,
was revealed, Is thought to have
become insane, He ia the only wit

to convict the nGrierers aud should the III.

trial the state will have no evidence to pro-
duce. Quong Seng has been In jail over
year charged with having robbed the
murdered detective and, during that
entire time, not one of his countrymen has
paid him visit or communicated with him
In anyway, nor will they have anything what
ever to do with him. No one has called to
see him except the jailer and even he cannot
converse with him. This enforced silence
and terrible boycott has turned the pris-
onsr's mind and the jail physician says that
unless he is released within few weeks he
will become hopelessly insane.

veloped the fact that the cave was made mp
OF many rooms Of great extent. A complete
exploration will be impossible until certain
large rocks are blasted or broken away,
In one Of the chambers there were found
two human skeletons, about 5000 In gold
and silver coin, and quantity OF sill

believed to have been the hiding

These marauders were attacked near Ben.

two were killed. These two escaped, and
going as 1t thought, to this cave, quarreled
over division OF the spoils OF the gang and
shot and killed each other. Steps will be
taken for further investigation Of the
cave and Its former occupants. It has been
